Why is this fucking update like a gig and a half? Is the character creator that bloated? It's insulting enough that they're putting in a new feature hoping people will pay real life money to put a pixel tattoo on their internet spaceship pilot.

I can't think of anything less important to the game at the moment than a spiffy new character designer. Your avatar is completely irrelevent in Eve.

did the graphics update change much? does shit look better? did they change loading transitions to make shit look smoother?

I think they're planning ahead, using this for their eventual 'walk around in stations' concept

Also, read the patch notes. Lots and lots of changes.

Yah, the new editor is for when we get to walk around in stations and slap/moon/tease each other. They're trying to cure the current ship spinning epidemic that's been going around, I bet. Supposedly they're going to put us addicts on the patch when next expansion comes out. Idk if it'll work, though.

Hi folks,

Are you guys still doing the mentoring thing for this game? I finally gave in and signed up for a free trial, it's downloading now. If so, I'd be interested. I will be on at some point tonight when I get everything downloaded and patched up.

Thanks.

A corp, The Dark Horses, just wardecced us. The reason for the dec is ambiguous. I think they are jealous of our blue horse.

It seems my 3 day old character in a 500k ship was instrumental in pointing, and thus killing a 300mil ship... Yay!

Hrm, 600 to 1 K/D? I thinks this is the start of a beautiful relationship....

But in fairness you lost your 500k isk rifter.

On a related note this was part of a much larger nullsec battle.
The scores went as followed. 1,185,000,000 isk damage inflicted upon them. 1,260,000isk losses. Now given their gang was a scimitar, rapier, proteus, falcon, dramiel, cynabal, cynabal, vagabond, hurricane, thorax, jag, enyo, sabre, hound whereas ours was scimitar, drakex4, canex2, blackbird, rifterx2, griffin, claymore and a safed up linky tengu that is a fairly impressive ratio.

We lost the frigates.

And you want to know why? we had no rapier with 2 scrams and arazu with webs (or was it vice versa?). We had no curse to neut them and we had no motherfucking nyx to rape them.

Maybe someone else can create a character for you and then you can test if the game will actually run.

Good tip! Thanks :D.

Sadly I'm stuck with this and can't get passed bloodlines. Gets stuck on loading with some vague buggy shimmering of character shapes in the background.

ESC
Change your graphic settings.
When i first loaded up the new patch, i couldnt see anything in station like they forgot to pay the light bill. After turning it all down i could see everything again.
I now have it all set back to high res and can see stuff while docked again so don't know what the problem was.
